The Duke of Hamilton, Hampstead

The only 'local' left in Hampstead village. Excellent beer, friendly staff, and outside seating at both front and back. Highly recommended, and a welcome refuge from the sort of pretentious twit too often found in this locale. Haven't tried the food, but it looks like fairly basic pub grub.

The Holly Bush, Hampstead

Everyone should visit the Holly Bush at least once. It trades a little bit on its 'olde worlde' charm, but that charm is real enough. The beer and the food have always been pretty good in my experience.

The Flask, Hampstead

Still one of the best pubs in Hampstead. Consistently good beer and friendly staff. I haven't tried the food, but it looks reasonable. Not quite as 'local' as it used to be.
